FaceTime over cellular working for you? AT&T says it's just keeping its promise

'Nothing new here,' says AT&T

AT&T has dealt with some backlash in the past regarding its FaceTime policies, but now the company says it's making good on its promise to roll out the feature the right way.

More and more iPhone users on AT&T are reporting they can now make FaceTime video calls over cellular data networks, according to AppleInsider.

The carrier made no formal announcements, but the additional leeway for an increasing number of users appears to be part of its greater road map for video chat.

"Nothing new here - just doing what we said we'd do when it comes to rollout," an AT&T spokesperson told TechRadar.

Fulfilling a promise

"As we promised, we've enabled pre-loaded video chat apps over cellular for our unlimited plan customers who have LTE devices from Apple, Samsung, and BlackBerry," AT&T said in a statement sent our way.

"Customers on Mobile Share and Tiered data plans can already use those apps. Throughout the second half of this year, we plan to enable pre-loaded video chat apps over cellular for all our customers, regardless of data plan or device; that work is expected to be complete by year end. All of our customers can use any mobile video chat app that they download from the internet, such as Skype."
